Reindeer Run

Ho ho ho! It’s time to get all Christmassy!

For the last five years, the much-loved Dorothy House Elf Run has brought us all plenty of festive cheer, and thanks to the amazing support from local schools and nurseries, it has raised an incredible £80,000!

New for 2024…the Reindeer Run!

We’re delighted to put a spin in the annual festive children’s run by bringing on…the antlers!  In December it’s your chance to put on a run that suits your school or nursery. Whether you get the whole year running one mile, you put on an assault course, your nursery run round your grounds or you hold a festive-themed PE lesson, it’s completely up to you!

Taking part? We’ve got you covered!

We can provide you with:

  • Reindeer antlers for each participant
  • Posters to promote your event
  • Sponsorship forms
  • Certificates for after your event
  • The opportunity for a large cheque presentation with the children following your event

Whether you have one group/class or get the whole school/or nursery involved, it’s entirely up to you! Parents and families are also welcome to take part in our Reindeer Run. We’ll then work with you to help you hold the safest, most enjoyable run possible!

Register to run!

Raising money for palliative and end of life care in your community

Of course, the goal is to raise as much money as possible to support Dorothy House. Every penny raised will help us to care for patients with life-limiting illnesses, and their families. The support of our local community is incredibly important, as it helps us to ensure families can continue to receive our support when they need it the most.

If you have any questions about the Reindeer Run, please get in touch with us here at Reindeer HQ by emailing communityfundraising@dorothyhouse-hospice.org.uk or by calling 01225 721480. We look forward to hearing from you!
